Just across the Sound from the Hamptons, you can call your stay at these beach-front sites “glamping” even if you’re sleeping in a two-person nylon tent. That said, the Hammonasset Beach campgrounds can accommodate groups of any size—ADA accessible, with over 500 sites that range from cabins to tents to electric, this spot is like a small beachfront village. Campers have access to potable water and ice, firewood, concessions, and plenty of life-guarded beaches, and available activities run the gamut from volleyball and bingo to ocean fishing and river canoeing. The best part though? Waking up to the sound of ocean waves crashing nearby.

The Sandbox Campground

29mi from Hammonasset Beach Campground · 3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Groton, CT

The Sandbox campground was born from The Sandbox Indoor Beach Sports and Events facility, which mainly focuses on providing year round beach volleyball. We bought the property in 2015 and opened the facility in 2019. As it happens, it's a 12+ acre lot surrounded by wetlands, hiking and biking trails ... there will never be another building built within view of our facility. We are surrounded by nature, and will be forever. So what a great opportunity to offer camping and access to all of the forests, woodlands, wetlands and trails around! And if you're up for it, come play some beach volleyball and meet new lifelong friends :)

Three Years of Campfires, Stories, and Friendships 🔥⛺ As I look back on the past three years since opening the campground, I’m filled with gratitude. What started as a dream has turned into something so much more thanks to each and every one of you who has stayed here, shared your stories, and brought your energy to this little piece of the outdoors. I’ve had the joy of meeting people from all walks of life travelers passing through, families on vacation, solo adventurers chasing peace, and seasoned RVers with tales from the road. Whether you’re here for one night or one season, getting to know where you’re from, where you’re going, and the stories in between has been the most rewarding part of running this campground. It’s not just about providing a place to park or pitch a tent it’s about building a community, even if it’s just for a weekend. The laughs around the fire, the kindness between strangers, and the shared love of the outdoors have made this journey incredibly special. Thank you for being part of it. Here’s to many more years of connection, conversation, and campfire memories. 🌲 Sincerely, Ronald Markeveys Pegasus Farms LLC

No privacy at all, we camped right in front of the visitors center which kept their bright lights on all night.

Hammonasset Beach State Park Campground is huge, family-friendly, and has direct beach access from the campground. There is no lifeguard on duty at the campground beach but lifeguards patrol the beach a mile or so north within the park. Smaller (car-top) boats can be launched from this area as well. The campsites do NOT include a fire pit (or grill). You must bring your own or there are fire tub rentals available at the campground store. The park includes a Nature Center complete with exhibits and activities, and hiking trails. Bald eagles can be seen on the nature reserve. Expect long lines at the state park entrance fee station on the weekend if the weather is nice.

Been camping here with family for years, great place for 'glamping' families! Dogs are allowed in the state park (leashed) but not in the camp ground. Most campers have trailers or RV's but there are some great tent sites too. Book at least 6 months out for holiday weekends! Beach is extremely close, love listening to the waves crashing at night.
